Doh! I figured it out - there was an abandoned ftp process from an earlier failed runthrough of the script. I killed the process, and my script runs fine now. Apparently it couldn't create another instance of this process with one still hanging out there, or something like that. Sigh...	[reply]

Apparently it couldn't create another instance of this process with one still hanging out there I don't think it even tries. If the application is already running, it will send the commands to that process. That means it was sending commands to (and waiting for a reply from) the non-responsive process. I'm not too sure about this.	[reply]

Yes, same machine, both scripts are scheduled with Task Manager with the same service account. Weird, eh?	[reply]
